In fact during the last economic downturn their pay went above a few majors.
And to “unprotected pilot” who started the post, who cares if they say where the growth will happen. So much of the US market is under served by the ULCC business model F9 can throw darts at a map, start service there and be successful.
That is a gross understatement... we announced a boatload of cities out of atl a few years ago... delta proceeded to price match and drove us out of quite a few markets in a matter of a couple months... atl-mem lasted a month... what happened to mco-psm, btv, lax, sfo?? They work hard to figure out what MIGHT work... we announced like 8 cities from Cuba and went to one... that lasted maybe 3 months... city pairs disappear and change monthly... it is definitely underserved compared to the success in Europe but this isn’t Europe so we’ll just have to see
